Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Birds Through an Opera-Glass
Like Snug the joiner, in Midsummer Night's Dream, I would explain to the ladies at the out set that this little book is no real lion, and that they have nothing to fear. It is not an ornitho logical treatise. It has not even the lion's roar of technical terms and descriptions to warn them of raging dulness, but is a very gentle beast. And of a good conscience.
